I had a date tonight.
NotYourAverageJoe19
Ouch. You went on a date without me?
FaeAtHeart
It was terrible. I would have preferred to go on a date with you. But you aren’t here. Or are you?
NotYourAverageJoe19
I could be. I might be closer than you think.
FaeAtHeart
Don’t tease me.
NotYourAverageJoe19
Tell me about your date. What does that have to do with your brother?
FaeAtHeart
Do you really want to know?
NotYourAverageJoe19
Yes. Just don’t get mad if I get jealous over this guy being able to take you out and I can’t.
FaeAtHeart
I’ll keep that in mind.
Are you comfortable?
NotYourAverageJoe19
Yeah. I’m good.
FaeAtHeart
I’m probably going to embarrass myself by telling you this but you need to know the whole story to understand why the date was doomed from the start.
When I was a teenager I really liked this boy. He was one of my closest friends at one point.
Then hebecame friends with my brother and it felt like a lot of what we had went away. The two of them became inseparable.
They were best friends.
NotYourAverageJoe19
You weren’t friends with the other boy anymore?
FaeAtHeart
I was but it was never the same. Sometimes it felt like I was kept around by default because of his new friendship with my brother instead of the friendship I thought we had. Anyway, I was invited to his birthday party.
